Kane County Drug Crime Defense Attorney
Charged with a drug crime in Kane County, Kendall County, or Aurora? Many drug cases turn on whether the police followed the law, and that is exactly where we attack.
Illinois charges drug offenses under the Controlled Substances Act (720 ILCS 570) and the Cannabis Control Act (720 ILCS 550), ranging from simple possession to possession with intent to deliver, delivery, and trafficking. The class of the charge, and the potential prison exposure, usually depends on the type and weight of the substance involved.
These cases frequently rise or fall on the legality of a traffic stop, a search warrant, the search of a car or home, or the use of a confidential informant. We scrutinize every step, move to suppress evidence that was obtained unlawfully, and fight to keep a charge from becoming a conviction.
